X Trillion is a powerful documentary that follows an all-female crew, led by renowned environmental activist and sailor Emily Penn (eXXpedition), as they sail across the North Pacific Ocean through the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The crew battles treacherous seas and conducts groundbreaking research on plastic pollution, shining a light on one of the most urgent environmental crises of our time.
